That is a question man has been asking since the beginning of time. When your grandparents were in school, it was21that the Universe was very22perhaps only 5,000 light years across. 500 years ago people considered that the Universe was only a little bit23than the Earth. In modern times with the24of technology we are finally starting to25the immense(无边的) size of the Universe, and it is much bigger than anyoneshouldhave ever imagined.Scientists cannot stretch(伸展)a measuring tape from the Earth to a nearby star, sohowdo they know how far away they are? Scientists use something26Parallax(视差). Parallax meanssimplythat they look at how much the stars move in the skyback and forththroughout the year as the Earth circles the Sun. This is not something 27to you. In fact if you stretch out your hand in front of you and28your thumb, while29one eye, and then the other, your thumb will30to move back and forth. Stars do thesamething, but our eyes are too close to see thedifference. However if we take a picture while on one side of Earths orbit, and then take another when we get to theoppositeside of the orbit, then we have a large enough distancethat we can see the stars parallax, anddeterminehow far away they really are.21. A. measured B. said C. thought D. proved22. A. old B. big C. mysterious D. small23. A. bigger B. smaller C. heavier D. nearer24. A. popularity B. power C. energy D. strength25.

Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep colour in meats and other food additives（添加剂）caused cancer.Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings（包装）of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit.The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.36.
